My Big Boy...

Date: October 2012

I've had many moments the past couple of months where I looked over at my munchkin and thought, holy canoli, he is not a baby anymore! These moments occur often...

Yesterday, I picked up my son from school and on our short walk to the car we passed by the very spot where we had seen a dog enter into an apartment building that morning on the way to school. "Doggy!" he shouted and pointed at the door to the apartment building. "Yes, that's right, the dog went in there." I responded. We kept walking and stopped in front of the pizza shop (I told him we'd have pizza for dinner). He ran inside and immediately found a seat and sat down. I smiled. He looked ADORABLE sitting in the chair with his legs dangling down, observing everyone around him. He no longer needs a highchair or booster seat at restaurants!

I ordered us two slices of pizza and asked the lady behind the counter to cut both in small slices. I sat down at the table next to my munckin. "No, mama! Over there!" Oh. He had picked out my seat across from him. "Ok Bubba, you want me to sit here, across?" He replied with his new most commonly used phrase, "Yeah." and then proceeded to grab my purse and place it on the seat next to him. We ate our pizza followed by a walk to the nearby park...it was a peaceful, pleasant evening with my little guy.
